RE: Official Team 11 checkstop!
I'mchecking in.My muzzleloader season starts on Oct 25th and the bucks will be at the peak of the rut at that time. General gun starts Nov. 8th andgoes to Jan 18th. I have a couple nice 8pts I will be stillhunting, but most of myhunting will consist of hunting in front of dogs with my Browning BAR 308. Nothing is more exciting than hearing a big buck crashing through the brush and water heading your way with a pack of hounds on him in full chase.

RE: Official Team 11 checkstop!
Amateurhunter and JasonLester,
Where do you guys hunt in Ohio? I hunt in Noble County on 200 acres of family land that borders Ohio Power. There are some pretty nice bucks in that area. I've taken a 125 class buck there each of the last 2 years.
I leased some land a few years ago outside of Bainbridge, Ohio in the southern part of the state, just west of Chillcothe, but it got to be too expensive and took me too long to get there (3 hours). I also had the land in Noble that didn't cost me anything, so I ended up dropping the lease.

RE: Official Team 11 checkstop!
Hey fella's what's up? Made it back from my first bow hunt of the year. I saw 3 bucks and 3 does. It rained all weekend. I hunt with either a Remington 7mm or a 30/30 Contender. I hope to tag a good 1 this year with a gun but will have to wait and see what happens. Gun season for me is the weekend before Thanksgiving.
I would take the 2 bigger bucks in this pic that 8 needs 1 more year.

madvilledoc,
I hunt north east of Cincinnati. Warren and Clinton Counties. Last years buck scored 153" shot in Warren county
I also recently found out I have permission on 500 private acres in Virginia (wifes families land). So I may have to find a way to take a trip down there.

Guys
I went hunting last weekend in SE MN. We saw a lot of deer (40) I can't believe it because it was so hot out. There was a ton of little bucks and one of my friends took a ok 8pt. about 120 in. I will be waiting for the big one, the buck we named the wykoffwonder. The Rack Shack is coming along it is a 50 x 70 shed with 2000 sq ft. of man's paridice inside.

In 6 days I will be heading out to Craig CO for Elk hunting. The whitetails in MN are starting to get active I am hoping to do some more bowhunting and scouting before the 8th of Nov. "the big day." Have any of you been seeing nice bucks around?
